Two things share the name The Oaks on this side of Georgetown, and they answer different questions.
The apartments: The Oaks at Georgetown, on Crab Apple Court, is the rental property this page covers. Its apartments are leased, not sold.
The townhomes: the town planning commission calls the next section The Oaks at Georgetown Phase 2. It is for-sale townhomes at South Bedford Street and Arrow Safety Road, and our page for it is called The Oaks.
Further phases: the town has had more townhome sections of the same planned community in front of it in 2026. We will add what is approved as it happens.
Your timing: a lease has an end date. Tell us when yours ends and we can line a home search and a closing date up with it.

The practical details of renting here.
Laundry: a stackable washer and dryer in every apartment.
Outdoor space: a balcony or patio with each apartment.

Read this first: Active Adults Realty is not a tax, legal or financial advisor and nothing below is advice. Confirm every figure with your own tax professional, with Sussex County and with the Town of Georgetown before you rely on it.
The state picture: Delaware has no state sales tax, no estate tax and no inheritance tax, and Social Security is not taxed.
As a renter: the property owner, not the renter, receives and pays the property tax bill on The Oaks at Georgetown.
When you buy: you will pay property tax on the home you buy. A home inside the Town of Georgetown limits, like the townhomes next door, pays county tax, school tax and town tax. Sussex County reassessed every property recently, so older tax figures on a listing may not reflect what you will pay.
